Thin, attractive woman accepted for who she is

As part of her new contract with ESPN/ABC, the world’s most lovely and delicate sideline reporter Erin Andrews will host the first hour of ESPN’s “College Gameday” at 9 AM ET on ESPNU. She will also keep up her high profile by contributing pieces to ABC’s “Good Morning America.” Which pieces she will be contributing have not been confirmed.

Andrews is most famous for being a celebrity contestant on the tenth season of “Dancing with the Stars” and for being filmed against her will through a modified door peephole in a Nashville hotel room. In 2007 and 2008, she was voted “America’s Sexiest Sportscaster” by Playboy magazine. I’m sorry, ignore that entire paragraph. Andrew is famous for reporting about sports.

In a related story, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart gave Olivia Munn a job because she is “funny.”

Pretty impressive. A few posts in and not one “Brandon sucks” or “Bring back Matt” comment.

Olivia Munn is not funny., John Stewart needs his ass kicked for perpetuating this myth that Munn is anything more than a reasonably attractive plank with no discernible talent or personality.

Munn conducted a pretty good interview last week. I anticipated it being real shitty, but she did a really good job considering it was her first for the show.

Only an unfunny sexist would like Olivia Munn. Like Tina Fey.

Oh, you didn’t know that it was her who told executive producer of Friends Scott Silveri and 30 Rock producer Jon Pollack that Olivia would be great for their new sitcom “Perfect Couples” on NBC this fall? Ya, Tina Fey is a horrible judge of humor.

@Burnsy, U.U. – I am pretty sad I missed this exchange (field work in Portland). Why, not more than three hours ago I was telling the intern about the time I got drunk and started hitting on Kristen Hersh after a show in Tucson a few years ago.

Thin, attractive woman, with surprisingly large breasts for how thin she is…

I’m actually fairly indifferent on Erin Andrews. She kind of exposes just how little talent you really need to do sports commentary. She’s better than most former players.

Oh for god’s sakes give Munn a chance. Did she get the job at least partly because of her looks? Of course. But even Wyatt Cynac who is now a great correspondant was absolutely terrible his first few times on the the Daily Show as I recall.
